Notes
Cheryll Greene worked as executive editor and Special Projects editor at Essence Magazine from 1979 to 1985. She also consulted to do special projects after that time (including the twentieth anniversary issue, etc.).
Two of the interns I had the honor of working alongside are Nina Candia Robinson and educator and entrepreneur and La Marr Jurelle Bruce, a scholar of race, gender, and madness.
The initial conference Yari Yari (1997) and the second conference Yari Yari Pamberi (2004) took place at NYU. Cheryll was most directly involved in the first two conferences. The third conference, Yari Yari Ntoaso, took place in Ghana in 2013.
